Chapter 654
Lola could not help shivering when she realized that her theory might be true. Her phone fell to the ground with a clatter as she shook her head in disbelief. "Impossible! The whole city knows that Catelyn is Ezekiel's daughter!"
Back then, Lisa fell in love with a foreigner and wanted to follow him back to his country, yet old Lady Atherton was against it and forced Lisa to cut him off and stay in Sapphire city.
That man could not possibly be Ezekiel!
Catelyn was unaware of Lola's conspiracy as she was instead worried about the cooperation between her company and Deluxe International.
The fact that the deadline Hunter set for her was around the corner while she had not received any news from Phillip was driving her crazy.
'Is that piece of land not tempting enough?' she contemplated.
Cedrick was helping the two little guys to take a shower in the bathroom. He had already been soaking wet when he wrapped the two children in bathrobes before putting them to sleep.
Miles stuck his head out from the quilt and requested, "Can we have Mommy sleep with US tonight?"
Still, Cedrick left without looking back.
He noted that the light in the study was still turned on when he came out of the children's bedroom. He then warmed a glass of milk and brought it to Catelyn.
"Having a rough time dealing with your task?"
He reclined beside the work table, with one leg slightly bent, sitting in a lazy posture. His hair was not fully dried as droplets slid down.
Catelyn took a sip of the milk, leaving a milk stain on her top lip.
Just as she was to speak, she saw the man's sexy posture and wet hair.
Frowning, she put down her glass, went to get a clean towel, and gently wiped his short hair for him as she sat on Cedrick's lap.
She did it gently, and Cedrick was very into it. He raised his eyes slightly, looked at the milk stain on her lips, and was amused by how adorable Catelyn looked.
Catelyn herself did not notice it at all as she muttered, "Phillip has been holding on to the stuff I need. He's making it troublesome for me."
"You should have contacted Windy."
Catelyn had heard of the name 'Windy' too many times from numerous people.
Joanne was in the entertainment industry, so it would be normal for Catelyn to spend some time reading tabloid magazines sometimes, she had seen windy more than Edwin being featured in those magazines.
"Honey, how much do you know about Windy?"
Cedrick was pleased to hear the nickname rolling off Catelyn's tongue. He leaned over to kiss her lips and gently licked away the milk stain on them.
It tickled Catelyn, like a feather streaking across her lips.
